Biznaga - 2k20



  Madrid based band Biznaga have been around since 2011 and featured on here 3 years ago with a track from their impressive Sentido del Espectaculo album (https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2017/01/biznaga-una-ciudad-cualquiera.html).

  Now they're back with a taster song for album number 3. It'll be released by Slovenly Recordings on March 6th and titled Gran Pantalla. Translating as Big Screen it'll deal with the amount of surveillance in modern day society. Our lives are largely lived out on screen. Cameras are everywhere. It's a theme with plenty of scope for discussion and add a bunch of tunes that will no doubt have the critics throwing around the usual Buzzcocks comparisons (though am I alone on hearing a bit of The Wedding Present type guitar work on this new song?). I'm sure it'll be an album worth waiting for. You can find more info here : https://www.facebook.com/biznagapop/


  This is the first single from the album, I've no idea what the lyrics translate as but that doesn't spoil the enjoyment of a song that starts strongly before building up into a joyfully upbeat crescendo of an ending. It's called 2k20...
